How does Lennie try to justify the puppy’s death?

English
1 answer:
Ipatiy [6.2K]4 years ago
4 0
Lennie accidentally kills the puppy by petting or squeezing it too hard. Lennie's dream is to take care of rabbits. When the puppy dies, Lennie has no real remorse for the dog- as he's only worried about what George is going to say about the dead dog (and whether or not he'll let Lennie get rabbits). Lennie tries to justify it by saying that dogs aren't rabbits and that it was the dog's fault that it died in the first place. He even considers hiding the body.

Which figures of speech appear in this excerpt from John Keats’s “Ode to Autumn”?
larisa86 [58]

Answer: personification and alliteration

Personification refers to the use of human qualities to describe animals, inanimate objects, abstract ideas or natural phenomena. In this case, the author gives "autumn" qualities that belong to humans, such as "sitting careless on a granary floor."

Alliteration refers to the repetition of identical initial consonant sounds, even when spelled differently. It is also called "initial rhyme." In this case, the author uses alliteration when he says "winnowing wind."

Compare Sarah Palin's view of government involvement in addressing obesity issues with Congressman Tim Huelskamp's view. Use sup
frez [133]
Compare Sarah Palin's view of government involvement in addressing obesity issues with Congressman Tim Huelskamp's view.

Answer: I believe that both of their views are very different and have different targets, on one hand we have Sarah Palin who thinks that the government should not get involved with what kids are eating at all when she directly attacks the“Let's Move” initiative. On the other we have Tim Huelskamp who does not agree with having to limit the amount of calories that kids eat at school. I believe that Tim’s view is right since every kid is different and I really don't think that limiting the amount of food they consume is the right way to handle the obesity problem.

I hope it helps, Regards.
